Obamacare = Publicly funded abortion.
If you support the Health Plan you are supporting publicly funded abortion.

"We have a Vatican II president."

That's how Fr. John O'Malley's latest in the Jesuit Magazine "America" opens.

The article also contains these sentences:

"I often hear laments that the spirit of Vatican II is dead in the church. Is it not ironic that not a bishop but the President of the United States should today be the most effective spokesperson for that spirit?"

I myself know almost nothing about Vatican II, but it's possible that what is dead is not the "spirit of Vatican II", but a particular interpretation of that spirit.

But if it is true that a non-Catholic supporter of abortion, partial-birth abortion, and Embryonic Stem-Cell Research, who just declared June to be "National Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender Month" is the most effective spokesperson for the "spirit of Vatican II", its death is certainly nothing to mourn. Diogenes and Father Z have weighed in on this.

With such wonderfully and thoughtfully expressedcomments on both sides. I cannot hope to compete ineloquence, so I'll be as succinct as I am able.

1. "Silver-tongued devils" do not a moral man ornation make.

2. As a graduate of a USF, I prayfor the suppression of the Jesuits, who manifest inso many ways they emphatically do not wish toenjoin the Church as humble Catholics, but ratheras Jesuits first (whatever that means to themtoday). It's articles like these that make plainhow far afield Jesuit thought is in regard toChurch teaching and how it fits into theirpriorities and agendae. That Father O'Malley wouldsubmit this for publication is an indication ofthis disease. In charity, it's time to rein theserenegades back into the fold or cut them offcompletely.

Yes, when the Jesuits proclaim that President Obama represents Catholicism more than Pope Benedict, you know that the Jesuits have ceased to be Catholic. Same goes for the dissidents/heretics at the National Catholic Reporter. Their true religion is liberalism; they just make a pretense of being Catholic. Shameful.

St. John Bosco, pray for us!
